We are having a meeting of LOST (luthiers of southeast Texas) next Thursday, and I can't wait!

I'll know I'll have to wait, but these happen about twice a year, and other than a GAL or ASIA, nothing beats it. Only problem is they keep taking the display guitars out of my hands to go PLAY them. What's up with that?

David,

I sure wish that was on a weekend. Is that the one in Houston?

Can I get more info on LOST? Contact persons, website, etc.
I'm a member of LINT and we meet every two months on Saturday's in the Dallas /Ft. Worth area.

Let's see, 5hr drive to LOST and 3hrs to LINT. Perhaps I'll make it to a LINT meeting sometime in the future...

I don't recall hearing of a Central Texas Luthier org although there are several luthiers in the area.

Ciao,

Mark

I can think of a half dozen in and around the Austin area not counting myself. Some I have only run across in forums like this. I don't know of a group that gets together either.
